My annual Rocky Knob Turkey Trot w/Zitch/Skip. Skip's first time at Rocky Knob. Warm weather (50's) compared to the 5" of snow last year. I was a bit slower than I would have liked. Started bonking on the climb out of the gorge. All but the last segment split were right at 25 min. Pulled out the Speedcross's for maybe their last run.
The trail was marked as closed due to the flooding Floyd got just before Hurricane Joaquin. No reason to close the trail in these conditions. Wasn't any worse than the trails in and out of the gorge except maybe after a rain. A warning sign to be careful would have been best. I saw a few others hiking the trail.
